“As a graduate of the University of North Texas and an active member of the university’s Sigma Nu Alumni Association, I could not be more excited to accept this leadership role with an institution that gave me such a fantastic foundation on which to build my own career in logistics,” Gravley said. “UNT’s logistics program is among the finest in the world, and has been the fastest-growing program in the nation for the last eight years.”
